1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Modern short-scale information transmission mainly relies on dissipative charge transport, with electrons scattered by defects and phonons, leading to significant power losses. By contrast, excitons-charge-neutral quasiparticles-offer a playground for electro-optical energy-efficient information transduction and processing owing to their extended lifetimes, charge neutrality and efficient electrostatic control. In this work, we report the observation of fast exciton transport in a van der Waals heterostructure over distances exceeding 10 µm, constrained only by the heterostructure finite size. We observe the presence of excitonic potential ramps that leads to long-range rapid exciton drift and enables rapid dilution of the initial exciton population. Our measurements reveal fast exciton propagation, with interlayer exciton drift velocities of approximately 2.66 × 10
